In short: Wet, Wet, Wet!In full: although this was the wettest race i have run in so far, i thoroughly enjoyed it and would do it again. Would rather a medal at the end but a T-Shirt is a nice reminder. Date of review: November 13, 2012

In full: Ran this race in 2003, never forgot it as I classed it as a 'PW' - Personal Wettest, rather than Personal Worst, as all the rain we hadn't had in the previous 6 months landed on Marlow that morning and the course was flooded in places. Then moved away in 2005, but decided a few months ago it might be good to come back to do the race again, thinking how pretty it could be if it was a sunny Autumn day...ha ha!Though the rain did more or less stop soon after we set off, the course was even more flooded than 2003 - maybe it's my fault? The Weather Gods had noticed I was coming back? Perhaps it's time to rename the race Marlow Half Paddle-athon.Certainly made doubly sure I'll never forget this race!Date of review: November 12, 2012

In short: Great scenery with a few hills, brilliantIn full: A Fantastic race with a few tough hills, which were even more challenging due to the roads being flooded. I'm soo pleased the race wasn't cancelled, i loved it and will definitely be back next year.. Date of review: November 9, 2012

In short: Flooded Hilly ChilternsIn full: Wettest I've ever got. After torrential overnight rain the water was pouring off the Chilterns flooding all of the low points up to knee high at some points. And of course the usual steep hills. So, not for the faint hearted or any PBs this year, but it was a fantastic expoerience.Date of review: November 9, 2012

In short: Brilliant race as usual and made extra challenging this year by the weather.In full: Marlow was fantastic again and the flooding made it extra special! In all the years I've been running I've never run through so much freezing water, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. The marshal's were very supportive in horrible conditions. Will be back again next year to run this very challenging race again:-)Date of review: November 6, 2012

In short: Well organised race despite the rainIn full: This continues to be a MUST DO race. Great course and scenery. Good support from the marshalls that endured the weather longer than us runners had to. Nice new touches lately with a text msg of our finishing time.

Only requests: (a) Please can we have the cotton long sleeve t-shirts back? I think many ppl have technical t-shirts already that seem to last forever (b) if the forecast is similar in future years, some matting on the grass would help. 1000 ppl tramping up and down the demarked muddy areas left everyone as losers(ruined ground, dirty gym and shoes).Date of review: November 6, 2012

In short: WowIn full: A very special experience. The conditions were so bad it made for a brilliant event. Trying to find a dry patch to tun in was a waste of energy because as soon a your feet warmed up you were back splashing through another "river". Thought the rain had stopped for the start (or maybe i did not notice or care) and i am sure the sun came out for a while. Superb support, marshalling and organisation in very difficult circumstances. Well done to everbodyDate of review: November 5, 2012

In short: Bonkers - running through torrents of water and deep freezing water.In full: Fifth time I have done Marlow Half so I must be bonkers. This one was special though, never run through so much water or had such frozen feet and legs. As ever will be back next year!Date of review: November 5, 2012
